2008 JEEP WRANGLER 2-DR 4X4 Complaints

I DON'T KNOW WHO TO CONTACT OR WHAT TO DO, I WAS THE OWNER OF A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER I HAVE OWNED IT SINCE 9/11/08 I ORDERED IT BRAND NEW FROM FACTORY THROUGH A DEALER. YESTERDAY MAY 31, 2008 AT AROUND 630 PM OR SO. I WAS DRIVING TO A LOCAL STATE PARK WHEN MY VEHICLE BURST INTO FLAMES IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AREA, WHILE I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45MPH DOWN A GRAVEL RODE. THERE WAS A POP AND THE VEHICLE LOST DRIVE POWER AT THE SAME TIME THE FLAMES SHOT OUT FROM UNDER THE DRIVERS SIDE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. I STOPPED THE VEHICLE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DIRT ROAD JUMPED OUT AND GRABBED MY CELL PHONE AND CALLED 911. NO ONE WAS INJURED FROM IT LUCKY BUT I AM CONCERNED THAT THE VEHICLE BEING LESS THEN A YEAR OUT OF THE FACTORY WOULD DO THAT. I LIVE IN MISSOURI VALLEY, IA THANKS FOR YOUR TIME, SCOTT ORTIZ *TR

HOOD RAISES UP 2 TO 3 INCHES DURING HIGH WINDS OR WHEN PASSED BY APPROACHING LARGE TRUCK. *TR

2008 JEEP WRANGLER 2 DOOR 4X4 CLUTCH SQUEAL BEEN TO SHOP 3 TIMES REPLACED DISK ON 2ND VISIT PER TSB NOISE STATED AGAIN IN 200 MILES. I WENT BACK A 3RD TIME DEALER SAYS "CAN'T REPRODUCE SOUND AFTER 3 DRIVES" I PULL OUT OF LOT WITHIN 200 YARDS THE NOISE IS AUDIBLE. VEHICLE HAS 1300 MILES ON IT ALSO ROOF LEAKS 3 TIMES IN SHOP TO FIX STILL NOT CORRECT MISSING PARTS OF SEAL ON ROOF. *TR

BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. STOP LAMP SWITCH FELL OFF MOUNTING BRACKET AND THE LIGHTS WERE ALWAYS ON. METHOD OF HOLDING SWITCH TO BRACKET WAS INSUFFICIENT TO HOLD THE WEIGHT OF THE SWITCH TO THE BRACKET. A NEW MOUNT WAS MADE TO HOLD THE SWITCH IN PLACE, USING THE OLD SWITCH. *TR

MY BRAND NEW 2008 JEEP WRANGLER X 4X4 BEGAN THE DREADED "DEATH WOBBLE" (LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL) AROUND 550 MILES. THOUGHT I WAS ABOUT TO "DIE". HAPPENED 4 MORE TIMES UNTIL I GOT IT TO THE DEALER. AFTER SEARCHING JEEP FORUMS AND SUCH, I FOUND THAT 1000S OF JEEP OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM, WITH MANY JEEP MODELS. AND LEARNED THAT CHRYSLER DOES NOT CONSIDER THE DEATH WOBBLE AN ISSUE. MY FAITH IN MANUFACTURERS HAS DROPPED TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PIT. THIS IS AN EXCEEDINGLY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. I'M GOING TO SEE WHAT I CAN DO TO GET THIS JEEP DEFECT ON NATIONAL TV. I AM LUCKY TO BE ALIVE. *TR

ALL ELECTRONIC FAILURE CLUSTERS LIGHTS UP ON DASH. WIPERS AND HEADLIGHTS COME ON AND CANNOT BE SWITCHED OFF. INDICATOR LAMPS, SPEEDOMETER AND RPM ARE NONE RESPONSIVE. ALARM SOUNDS REPEATEDLY UNTIL THE PROBLEM SELF CORRECTS. ALL OTHER ELECTRICAL FUNCTIONS SUCH AS RADIO SHUTS DOWN. THE PROBLEM DOES NOT AFFECT THE MOTOR. *TR

1) JEEP WOULD NOT START AFTER SHUT DOWN 2) HAD TO GET A TOW TO DEALERSHIP 3) WIRELESS MODULE FOR C-BUS QUIT WORKING, ORDERED NEW ONE. *TR
